Hi,

I know not the most exciting topic! However, the existing Terms of Reference, i.e.  MantidProgrammeBoard.docx, is hugely out of date.

Please see  Proposed update to the MantidProgrammeBoard terms - Oct 2024.docx for proposed updated Terms, which is ~600 words long as compared to current ~1600 words long Terms.

Motivation for doing this also is that we have new members coming in/out with Steve/Rob and Jonathan/Gui, hence a closer to reality description of this board might be helpful.

Note the wording of the Terms says that it needs approval including by the ISIS Computing Division Head (as I read it). Hence before passing it to Hannah, either before or on Thursday please don’t hesitate to provide feedback in that meeting, here or using Word comments/track changes.

Best,

Anders
